Funny enough, there's also a (very nice, i might add) limited edition iMac DV in the video.
Guess who makes the CRT in these for Apple? LG. Actually LG made most everything in old CRT iMacs except the logic board. In my May 2000 Rev. E iMac, LG made:
The CRT
The PAV (Power Analog Video board, a.k.a. a combination CRT chassis/power supply)
The slot-loading CD drive
The down-converter that feeds off the PAV and supplies +5 and +12V to the motherboard
The daughterboard with the reset and programmer/interrupt button
The daughterboard with the power switch
The daughterboard for the two headphone jacks and the amplifying circuit for the built-in speakers
Some slot-loading iMacs used a Chunghwa CRT instead of an LG, but everything else was still LG.
Anyway back to the subject.. was it a coincidence that the computer in the video was mostly made by LG, or did they know? I'm thinking it was the former.
